The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - In an important milestone, Hamilo Coast, SM Prime’s premier beach resort community in Nasugbu, Batangas was recently conferred the Bronze Benchmarked status through EarthCheck, the world’s leading scientific benchmarking, certification and advisory group for travel and tourism.

Hamilo Coast’s operations and sustainability programs were quantitatively evaluated and appraised against local and regional industry baseline and best practices. After thorough assessment, Hamilo Coast was granted the Bronze Benchmarked recognition indicating that it passed EarthCheck’s sustainable operation standards, making it the first residential resort development in the country to be awarded such.

 ‘This achievement underscores our goal to make sustainability a priority in our masterplan and development. We want Hamilo Coast to be proof that development and preservation can co-exist’ says Rona Torres-Tan, Hamilo Coast’s Senior Vice President.

Hamilo Coast is also in partnership with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF Philippines) and the SM Foundation, who help ensure that environmental and social sustainability are top priorities in its operations. 

Costa del Hamilo Inc is the developer of Hamilo Coast, the premier beach resort town of the SM Group in Nasugbu, Batangas.  Hamilo Coast is now only 90 minutes from Manila via Cavitex and the new Ternate-Nasugbu Road.  For inquiries, call (632) 945-8000, or visit www.hamilocoast.com
